Irvine, California, February 7, 2025: SimInsights Inc was invited to participate in the ASME Mechanical Engineering Education (MEEd) Summit organized by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) at the USC Hotel in Los Angeles, California. SimInsights CEO Raj Jha will deliver a talk on Experiential Learning with Generative AI & eXtended Reality (XR) on Saturday.
Skills gap is a major problem in advanced manufacturing and many other fields. The problem is further exacerbated by shortage of skilled instructors, rapid technological advances and an aging workforce. This talk will include a broad overview of the landscape of generative AI and eXtended Reality technologies with a focus on how they can help department heads deliver experiential learning opportunities to students in an engaging, affordable and scalable way.
The ASME Mechanical Engineering Education (MEEd) Summit, which was launched in 1989, is the only conference specifically designed for mechanical engineering and engineering technology educators and leaders, from academia, industry, and government, that takes an in-depth look at the current and future challenges and opportunities impacting mechanical engineering education. Attendees include Associate Chairs, Department Heads/Chairs and other ME leaders. Benefits offered by this conference include exploration of current pain points and emerging trends in the engineering industry, current state of mechanical engineering and engineering technology curriculum and trends, networking and peer learning and strategic partnerships.
About SimInsights
SimInsights mission is to democratize the creation of 3D, interactive, immersive and intelligent (I^3) simulations. We believe that simulations are the most impactful way to learn, yet few people can actually leverage them as a creative medium. SimInsights offers HyperSkill, a no-code tool to enable everyone to capture their knowledge in the form of 3D immersive, AI-powered simulations and share it with others. SimInsights team used HyperSkill to create Skillful, a growing collection of simulations to help anyone master any skill.
About ASME
ASME helps the global engineering community develop solutions to real world challenges. Founded in 1880 as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, ASME is a not-for-profit professional organization that enables collaboration, knowledge sharing, and skill development across all engineering disciplines, while promoting the vital role of the engineer in society. ASME codes and standards, publications, conferences, continuing education, and professional development programs provide a foundation for advancing technical knowledge and a safer world. In 2020, ASME formed the International Society of Interdisciplinary Engineers (ISIE) II & III LLC, a new for-profit subsidiary to house business ventures that will bring new and innovative products, services, and technologies to the engineering community.
